This famous Sinhalese legend is extravagantly portrayed in ‘Mahavamsa’ (the most comprehensive chronicle of the history of Sri Lanka) written during the 5th Cent. AD by Mahanama thero. Although it has been difficult to specify the time period in which King Pandukabhaya ruled, it can be inferred from the chronicles that he ruled over 2300 years back. A brief description of the legend as related in Mahavamsa is given below.After Prince Vijaya, an outcast of India, who came ashore in Sri Lanka in 543 B.C. and settled in the island, died, Panduvasudeva became the king. Bhaddakachchana, a Shakya Princess, was brought down from India as his queen consort. At length, the monarchs had ten sons and one daughter. The daughter was called Ummada Chitra because of her exceeding beauty. The soothsayers foretold that the son of Princess Chitra would destroy his uncles and wrest the kingdom for himself. Therefore, the brothers decided to kill their sister but the elder brother Abhaya persuaded them to keep her in a chamber built upon a single tower (called ‘Ektamgeya’) which was accessible only through a door from the king’s bedchamber. In the meantime Bhaddakachchana’s brothers established settlements around the island. Dighagamini, the son of Digayu, one of these brothers was appointed to serve the court of the king at Upatissagama. Dighagamini heard of Chitra and fell in love with her. By means of a stratagem he visited the chamber and Chitra conceived a child. Hearing this, the uncles decided to kill the child if he were to be male but Chitra exchanged babies with another woman whose child was a girl. Afterwards Chitra’s son, Pandukabhaya, grew up in a village called Doramandalawa (Dwaramandala). When he was seven, the uncles discovered the boy’s existence and started to kill all the boys of his age. Somehow he escaped death and later on he grew up under the tutelage of a Brahmin named Pandula. Having attained youth he killed all the uncles except Abhaya and became the first King of Anuradhapura marrying Swarnapali and ruled for 70 years.<img src="http://www.aba.lk/wallpapers/05.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The ProductionJustin Belagamage and Ms. Rajindra Jayasinghe are producing this film for Mandakini Creations (Pvt) Ltd. This film is allegedly the most expensive Sinhalese movie to date(Cinema of Sri Lanka). Jackson Anthony, the director, who is one of the most popular actors in Sri Lanka will not be portraying any role in ABA. He has directed several films before as well. Sajitha Anuttara, Jackson Anthony’s son, will be portraying the role of Pandukabhaya. This film will also feature Malini Fonseka, Ravindra Randeniya, Sriyantha Mendis, Sabeetha Perera and many other popular actors. The production of this film began halfway through 2007. The film was shot at different remote places in Sri Lanka. Shooting has been completed by now. The set for the royal palace reportedly cost around 6.5 million Rupees. Through this film the filmmakers expect to pioneer an “epical tradition of the Sinhala cinema”. The Producers expect ABA to become a landmark and momentous production in the history of Sri Lankan cinema for its sheer magnitude in scale, choice of technology and methods used, and its extraordinary cinematic quality.<img src="http://www.aba.lk/wallpapers/01.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Cast* Sajitha Anuttara (Pandukabhaya)* Ravindra Randeniya (Pandula)* Malini Fonseka(Bhaddakachchana)* Sabeetha Perera (Ummada Chitra)* Kanchana Kodituwakku (Diga Gamini)* Saumya Liyanage (Habara)* Sriyantha Mendis (Parumukhaya)* Neil Alles (King Panduvasudeva)* Lucien Bulathsinhala (Abhaya)<img src="http://www.aba.lk/wallpapers/02.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Crew* Director – Jackson Anthony* Producers- Justin Belagamage, Ms. Rajindra Jayasinghe for Mandakini Creations* Assistant Director – Anura Wijeysinghe* Director of Photography – Suminda Weerasinghe* Music Director – Nadeeka Guruge* Production Manager- Samanpriya Marasinghe* Art Director – Udeni Subodhi Kumara* Make-up Artist – Vasantha Vittachchi* Editor- Ravindra Guruge* Costume Designers- Nihan Senevirathna, Vasantha Srinath* Choreographer- Chandana Wickramasinghe* Stunts Director- Guru G Karunapala* Lyricist- Prof. Sunil Ariyarathne<img src="http://www.aba.lk/wallpapers/03.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />MP4 Quality Video<a href="http://sinhalen.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=15:aba&catid=75&Itemid=435" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD All Parts</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/13985545/Aba.part01.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 01</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/13985770/Aba.part02.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 02</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/13989166/Aba.part03.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 03</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/13989428/Aba.part04.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 04</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/13989674/Aba.part05.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 05</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/13989944/Aba.part06.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 06</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/14004477/Aba.part07.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 07</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/14004723/Aba.part08.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 08</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/14005024/Aba.part09.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 09</a><a href="http://www.ziddu.com/download/14005163/Aba.part10.rar.html" target="_blank">DOWNLOAD Part 10</a><img src="http://www.aba.lk/wallpapers/04.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
